Tuning in is easy. Sign in to Instagram on your phone, visit Tualatin Valley Creates’ profile page (@tualatinvalleycreates), and click on our profile picture which will say “live” during the event.

Funds raised during Giving Tuesday help cover the costs of low- and no-cost professional development workshops, community services like our regional calendar ($1,200/yr), outreach that gets opportunities and resources to artists ($1,020/yr), and graduate stipends for the Arts & Culture Leadership Incubator ($500/participant), just to name a few. 

Our ability to come together to help each other is more important right now than ever. TVC is dedicated to Washington County’s creative future. When you donate to TVC, you are part of the movement to provide local artists the tools they need to enrich life for the rest of us.
